combat maze

May 13, 2007 Roda Slane link
someone said that it is easy for the devs to make a racetrack. i think there is already a racetrack called the maze. the main problems with race tracks for combat is that they are not complex enough, they are too open on the outside, and there isn't anything to really fight over inside. so...

make a really large roid (there are some really big roids in this game already), make a large hollow space inside it(or more than one), and create track size tunnels connecting the hollow space and the outside, adding a maze of branches for fun. the hollow space could account for about %20 of the roids volume, leaving plenty of space for tunnels, keeping the tunnels far enough separated that lightning mines would not reach parallel tunnels.

Have a queen and escorts spawn full time in the hollow.

Place standard hive hunt type hive forces outside the roid. The outside hive forces would gradually increase or decrease to maintain some semblance of a stalemate.

The Hive roid could be placed somewhere in gray to promote conflict.

sounds fun, i would like to see different types of these just like there are different racetracks. maybe one could be a secret pirate base, or a mostly empty one with maybe a few bots like overseers and other fairly strong bots that you may run into, but the maze itself would be made to get you lost with small areas to fight in every once and a while.
